RED DEVIL
NOTEBOOK
Times change. During the years
of Jewish mass immigration no
one in the. United States would
have dreamed of suggesting that
Yiddish should be included in the
curriculum of the American'
school system.
Immigrant Jewish. parents who
wanted their children to learn
Yiddish, or study Jewish culture
and history, sent the children to
Jewish afternoon schools main-
tained by the Workmen's Circle
and other groups of Jewish im-
migrants. They — and everybody ,
else in the country — looked upon
the public elementary and high
scnoots as iriatitutions for edifcat-
ing children in English only, the
language of the country.
Today, more than $150 million
in federal, state and municipal al-
locations are being spent an-
nually to meet the special educa-
tional needs of linguistically
different children in the nation. It
is estimated that more than
300,000 children are participat-
ing in the bilingual/bicultural
programs in more than 65 lan-
guages and dialects % primarily
in the Spanish language, but also
in Japanese, Korean, Russian,
Armenian, French, Italian, Greek
and other languages. The biling-
ual bicultural centers for teachers
have libraries and extensive col-
lections of materials for bilingual
programs.
There is a sharp division of
opinion among legislators,
educators and civil. rights ac-
tivists with regard to-curricula. in
Spanish, in addition to English, in
the public school system. Many
believe that children of immig-
rant families should be taught in
English only, so that they can
master the English language ear-
lier and bring it into their homes,
thus enabling their parents to be-
come Americanized in shorter
time. Others insist that bilingual
education of children of immig-
rants would help the children in
maintaining their native lan-
guage, their ethnic culture, and
also advance their general educa-
tion.
There are about 20 million His-
panics in the U.S. today and they
constitute nearly seven percent of
America's population.

The only - Jewish immigrant
children in the U.S. today who
need bilingual education are the
children of the approximately
70,000 Jews from the Soviet
Union who reached this country
since 1970. They were brought up
in the Russian language.
For these children there are
bilingual courses of Jewish con-
tent in a number of public schools,
especially in New York where al-
most a half of the newcomers set-
tled.
There is a textbook, The World
Around Us, with material in
English parallel to Russian pub-
lished with funds provided under
the Elementary and Secondary
Education Act. It seeks to fulfill
the need in programs and mate-
rials that provide a cultural
change in general American and
Jewish directions for Jewish im-
migrant children from Russia.
